Re: Cooking club

I couldn't find beluga lentils in my local shops and supermarkets, so I've ordered them online. They should be here tomorrow. I've bought some French (Puy) lentils as well, because they have similar properties and taste, so I can substitute if there is a problem with the delivery. Besides that, I have all other ingredients.

Processing....

Re: Cooking club

I started making my salad and realized I don't have salt or sugar here. So I had to clean the kitchen, go get some, then get everything out again and finish it. Since I went to the store anyway, I got corn after all.
I accidentally put too much sugar in mine because I was using memory and I ended up doubling the recipe twice with the sugar instead of once.
I intended to make two jars but made 2.8, with the last one having off proportions. Hopefully it's good, because I'll imagine I'll have leftovers.

I took a guess and thought maybe black lentils were hard to get here so I just told my stepdad green lentils. I probably could have found it though...maybe I'll stop at a health foods store before going over tomorrow.

Re: Cooking club

Yeah, you need to grate them. Otherwise the consistency will be wrong. You can of course use a food processor to grate them, if it has this funciton, but you need to use large meshes (that's how they's called, right?)
